This was a cool conversion. I made a squad of Space Skaven by using Storm Vermin heads, bodies, and arms, and adding on the guns with clawed hands from the Genestealer Neophyte kit. It is a nice quick, easy and effective kitbash.
Yeah, GW are basically letting Mantic monopolise the market for space rats with their Veer-Myn range, which has some great models but considering how unique the Skaven were when they came out there's a real missed opportunity somewhere along the line
@@casanovafunkenstein5090 Some of the Veer-Myn stuff is okay, but it still doesn't have that Skaven vibe sadly. It would be interesting to see some "official" 40k Skaven. Even if they were just for Necromunda.
I'd love to see your attempt at a Maneater unit. With the amount of bits you must have lying around it should be an easy job, something in the vein of your Kill Team videos.
Thank you! Ive wanted to run Skryre forever but havent been sure how to approach the need to convert them to make them look more modern, a lot of these ideas will likely work for the other gun teams, but more videos on things like the ratling gunners or warpfire throwers would still be hugely appreciated!
I'd love to see more weapons teams like the warpfire thrower or rattling gun! maybe the one-manned rattling from Vermintide would be a cool change from the two-rat team sold by GW?
Would love to see a comparison between your model and the one you're replacing. Not a big deal if youre familiar with the model before seeing the video but for example, I've never even heard of this faction let alone the unit so a comparison to put things into perspective would be amazing
This is brilliant! It was my idea as well to use stormvirmine and the long rifle from the skitarii, but I intended to use a clan rat for the shield guy. This was terrific. Next, the other weapons teams, warp grinder, ratling warp fire thrower, and warp grinder.
Always love when we get to see fantasy/AoS videos. Gives me hope that one day you'll kit bash Felix Jager, so I can follow the steps and reunite him woth the newer Gotrek model the did recently. Awesome video as usual.
Brilliant! I hope Skaven get a line refresh soon, and if the Horned Rat bestows blessings then they will be a crossline between AOS and 40K, like how they did demons.
Would love to see primaris Blood Jaguars or Obsidian Jaguars, aka Aztec space marines. Or maybe some converted saurus stuff like the Astrolith Bearer or Guards.
Would love to see a kitbash for some imperial guard regimental advisors. Specifically Master of Ordnance and Officer of the Fleet. Not really a fan of the metal ones currently sold by GW and cant think of a decent kitbash myself. Eitherway look forward to more videos in the future!
Primaris scout sergeant with combi weapon and chainsword? Would give you a nice alternative leader, demo or veteran option for your Raptors kill team roster. Great work as always. Cheers.
Thank you very much for making this video guide! I was looking for ways to improve the way the official Warplock Jezzails look just days ago. Your Jazzail team looks great and I will try to make a team following your instructions. I would really appreciate it if you could do a video guide on how to kitbash Ratling Gun weapon teams.
I think the hole in the shield could’ve stayed with a few adjustments. You could’ve said that it remained as somewhere for the jezzail to poke out of to fire from a position of safety.
It's pretty annoying that GW had plastic Warplock Jezzails (and a bunch of other stuff) back in 2010's Island of Blood, but then they just gave up on that.
There were never any plastic jezzails. They had a poison wind globadier team and a flamethrower team. I agree though, it's really sad what they did to Island of Blood. I got super lucky and managed to snag about three skaven halves of the set in a few months, but sold two later due to lost interest. It's a great kit.
The clan rats from that kit came out as a separate set but it was a shame that we didn't see the characters and weapon teams get released separately too.
As mentioned at the end of the vid, you can mash together some Galvanic Rifles to get a similar piece to this one. They're also a LOT more common, since you get about 10+ of them per Skitarii kit instead of 1 per kit like the Arquebus.
@@Ninjat126 that’s exactly what I was saying. Why not show the more cost effective build with the more readily available parts. I cannot see the build using the arquebus being more cost effective then buying the original models... Saying that, I think the conversion is still better looking than the originals, of which I have 10.
Hey pete yet another amazing video. Just wondering if you were thinking of kitbashing nightlords in the future as your by far my favorite 40k RUclipsr and nail every weekly kitbash/conversion :) keep up the great work!!
Could you do a conversion for skryre acolytes, my friend is looking for a more cost effective way of making a clan skryre army without dealing with metal or resin
It would be cool if you could build some of the leaders from the WH Fantasy as they look in the TW WH game. I need Lord Skrolk and i would also love Vlad and Isabella.
Great conversion but I think it would be better it the magazine was removed from the rifle. That and perhaps a little green at the muzzle to be war-stone residue from shots fired.
I want to make a team of tallarn snipers with jezails, but I refuse to buy the whole freeguild handgunners/skitarii box for 1 rifle and no bit sellers have either rifle in stock. What do?
For the gun, have you considered the (appropriately named) radium jezzail from the Ironstrider kit? It's a poor choice rules-wise, so I would imagine it's available for cheap on bits sites.
It would be cool if you converted other outdated modells like rat ogres, salamander hunting packs, kroxigors, almost any ogre hero on foot, gorgers or icefall yhetees
More skaven conversions please! Maybe Skryre Acolytes next?
100% this!
Yess!
Cant beat a bit of Skaven
Please yes!
I definitely need to give the Acolytes a look. £10 for a single battleline miniature!
Please do the rest of the weapons teams. Would love to see how you'd tackle them. Great video
The Warp-Grinder isn't too bad but the Warp-Fire and Ratling Guns are looking VERY dated so it would be good to give those a kitbash at some point.
The island of blood Warp Fire looks pretty good if you can get your hands on it. Please do the Ratling Gun
I came to post the saem thing, your builds are super inspiring
@@PeteTheWargamer RATLING GUN! RATLING GUN! RATLING GUN! RATLING GUN! RATLING GUN!
-Clan Skryre
@@PeteTheWargamer I hope you are true to your word/intentions... now that we have a new codex. Btw, any tips for painting that skaven wood?
This was a cool conversion.
I made a squad of Space Skaven by using Storm Vermin heads, bodies, and arms, and adding on the guns with clawed hands from the Genestealer Neophyte kit. It is a nice quick, easy and effective kitbash.
I think that skavens are one of the most intresting fractions, also, more 40k skavens. Also, amazing video!
Yeah, GW are basically letting Mantic monopolise the market for space rats with their Veer-Myn range, which has some great models but considering how unique the Skaven were when they came out there's a real missed opportunity somewhere along the line

Sweet more Skaven builds, thanks Pete. Off to share this one
Thanks Matt! I appreciate it :D
Made mine from a box of clanrats, 3D printed admech rifles and wooden bits. Best conversion I've done so far.
Top job and i loved the price breakdown at the end. Very useful.
Thanks!
Now your talkin'! I'm working on converting some plague monks for Necromunda, love to see your take on it.
The conversion Guide I needed most
Glad to hear it :D
I'd love to see your attempt at a Maneater unit. With the amount of bits you must have lying around it should be an easy job, something in the vein of your Kill Team videos.
They would excellent to kitbash, they have such a variety of themes to choose from. Maybe some based on the different mortal realms.
Thank you!

With having costing up some jezzails this has given me so much hope as I have plenty of left skitarii weapons.
Would love to see a comparison between your model and the one you're replacing. Not a big deal if youre familiar with the model before seeing the video but for example, I've never even heard of this faction let alone the unit so a comparison to put things into perspective would be amazing
If I had some of the older models to hand I would have done, but maybe including a photo of them would have been helpful
This is brilliant! It was my idea as well to use stormvirmine and the long rifle from the skitarii, but I intended to use a clan rat for the shield guy. This was terrific. Next, the other weapons teams, warp grinder, ratling warp fire thrower, and warp grinder.
Would like to see your take on any of the necromunda hive scum/ named bounty hunters that is in a rule book but doesn't have a model
Thanks for the suggestion! I might have to check out that rulebook
Nice, need to fig out my neglected Skagen and finish painting them. Then perhaps start on some conversions for them.
Always love when we get to see fantasy/AoS videos. Gives me hope that one day you'll kit bash Felix Jager, so I can follow the steps and reunite him woth the newer Gotrek model the did recently.
Awesome video as usual.
That looks good, tempted to try it myself next time I'm working on my Skaven.
I love this conversion,gw should make these for the kits
I'd absolutely love it if GW re-released their Skaven teams in plastic.
You had the exact same idea for rifle options as me.
Brilliant! I hope Skaven get a line refresh soon, and if the Horned Rat bestows blessings then they will be a crossline between AOS and 40K, like how they did demons.
A kit bashing emperor of mankind would be so sick and btw love the jezzails
Would love to see more skaven, Skyre acolytes or some of the weapon teams
The acolytes are in desperate need of a redo!
Would love to see primaris Blood Jaguars or Obsidian Jaguars, aka Aztec space marines. Or maybe some converted saurus stuff like the Astrolith Bearer or Guards.
Always great to see more aos conversions!
Nice one.
Would love to see more skavens.
Great work, the pavise was especially clever. Hope to see Ratling Guns and Warpfire Throwers soon.
This is one of my favorite ones you've done so far, turned out great. Thanks Pete!
Would love to see your take on the ratling gunner!
I think that Pete can do a great job converting a Ratling gun team! I suggest using the Aethermatic Volley Gun from the Arkanaut Company box.
I like your warpstone scope!
This is awesome! Very well done.
Very nice. I'd like to see, keeping with the Skryre theme, some acolytes.
I've got a few ideas for those guys ;)
@@PeteTheWargamer cool can't wait to see them.
Lovely piece of work there 👍☺
Great vid! Love seeing your kitbashes!
Great kitbash tutorial!
Would love to see a kitbash for some imperial guard regimental advisors. Specifically Master of Ordnance and Officer of the Fleet. Not really a fan of the metal ones currently sold by GW and cant think of a decent kitbash myself. Eitherway look forward to more videos in the future!
Great video! I would love to see you do Skryre Acolytes and the other Skaven weapons.
Plague monks plus Sharti Ranger heads and backpacks work in a pinch but Pete could do it way better
not an AOS person, but skaven are sick, and so are these!!
i like how you pause before saing inhale finecast
A video on your most favorite kits to use would be cool, maybe a sort of top ten best kits for kitbashing?
Your skaven projects are awsome, really liked your space skaven video as well.
Primaris scout sergeant with combi weapon and chainsword? Would give you a nice alternative leader, demo or veteran option for your Raptors kill team roster.
Great work as always. Cheers.
Loved the video. Another great model. Seeing as you have excess Storm Vermin models, fancy doing an updated Ratling Gunner?
I have been looking at Mantic Games Kings of War Ratkin Clawshots. They are resin but make five single figure models for $28.
This might make me make a whole skaven army of conversions of models not in plastic seems like a fun challenge
Thank you very much for making this video guide! I was looking for ways to improve the way the official Warplock Jezzails look just days ago. Your Jazzail team looks great and I will try to make a team following your instructions. I would really appreciate it if you could do a video guide on how to kitbash Ratling Gun weapon teams.
just bought some punga miniatures jezzails they are pretty cool alternatives if non gw stuff is an option for you
Those are awesome. Thinking about buying them. They look so cool, especially the shield rats with the telescopes.
Great job! I'd love to see some Kroot kitbash from you someday!
I think the hole in the shield could’ve stayed with a few adjustments. You could’ve said that it remained as somewhere for the jezzail to poke out of to fire from a position of safety.
i'd like to see you kitbash a unique never-before-seen tau member species to replace any unit type you want in the tau codex :)
Pls do a rattling gunner that looks like the one from vermintide 2
It's pretty annoying that GW had plastic Warplock Jezzails (and a bunch of other stuff) back in 2010's Island of Blood, but then they just gave up on that.
No Jezzails in the Island of blood set, but a flamethrower and a plague mortar were included.

Yeeeeah that was one of my suggestions
Beautiful
A good build but, given the scarcity / cost of the rifle, for me I would have liked to see a build using alternative rifles, such as the Kroot one
As mentioned at the end of the vid, you can mash together some Galvanic Rifles to get a similar piece to this one. They're also a LOT more common, since you get about 10+ of them per Skitarii kit instead of 1 per kit like the Arquebus.

Damn man, I would love to see you kitbash something to make a plastic vargulf
Wonderful worK!
Like a load of other folk have said, I'd love to see how you'd tackle the rest of the Skaven weapon teams and things like Acolytes.
Skaven tri-force shield 🛡 💪🏼
Please do a rat ogre conversion! You are so talented!!!!
Lovely conversion - I am not usually a Skaven fan but this kitbash and the muted dirty pallet might just make a Rat-king out of me :p
Thanks Dave! I love Skaven, but I don't love the idea of having to paint and build hundreds of them 😂
I’d love to see your take on a talos of the night lords
That is amazing how you used the shields. I will use this next time I have a project. Could you do some fun future grimdark scaven?
So radical!
I’d love to see a primaris Lemartes. The old finecast model is pretty brutal
Pete, do a vs. Video against "the cocked dice". It would be amazing to see you both do your own rendition of a model voted on by the community!
If I could like this 100k times, I would.
You should do a video on each of the weapon teams
I'd love to see an updated plastic rogue idol of gork/mork
Hey pete yet another amazing video. Just wondering if you were thinking of kitbashing nightlords in the future as your by far my favorite 40k RUclipsr and nail every weekly kitbash/conversion :) keep up the great work!!
Love Skavens

It would be cool if you could build some of the leaders from the WH Fantasy as they look in the TW WH game.
I need Lord Skrolk and i would also love Vlad and Isabella.
Would love to see some moulder conversions. Today’s rat ogres are pretty ugly and I’d wish they got a good touch up
Does that weapon have a magic vision or night vision.......glorious finish as always oh Jedi of the art of kit bashing ! .
YES FINALLY I HAVE BEEN HEARD!
Do you know any places I can find a decently priced transuranic arquebus
What is the point of putting warpstone in the lens, blocking sight for the shooter?
Would be cool to see some more Lizardman builds, a lot of their figures are pretty outdated- specifically any of the ones not riding a dino.
wouldn't the radium jezzail be a better fit for the warplock jezzail?
Great conversion but I think it would be better it the magazine was removed from the rifle. That and perhaps a little green at the muzzle to be war-stone residue from shots fired.
I could FEEL you saying 'finecast'.
I want to make a team of tallarn snipers with jezails, but I refuse to buy the whole freeguild handgunners/skitarii box for 1 rifle and no bit sellers have either rifle in stock. What do?
I don´t even play AoS, but that was an interesting watch nonetheless!
How did I miss this?!
For the gun, have you considered the (appropriately named) radium jezzail from the Ironstrider kit? It's a poor choice rules-wise, so I would imagine it's available for cheap on bits sites.
Would love to see the ratling gun team.
Im a simple man I see Skaven I hit the subscribe button
Can you do a Vespid Warrior conversion?
Amazing
What colours did you use to paint these, I love the way they look
master class !!
A nice and good kitbash, sad its damn hard to get your hands on some reasonable priced arquebus, still love the video.
The finecast Jezzail were soooooo fiddly and broke so easy.
What about some Grey Knights conversion?
Would love to see your take on an Infestation of Space Rats in the 40k universe
@Robert Appling cheers ...as a relative newcomer I haven't caught up on all the videos 😊 appreciate it 👍
What paints did you use to paint the metal armor? It looks fantastic!
It would be cool if you converted other outdated modells like rat ogres, salamander hunting packs, kroxigors, almost any ogre hero on foot, gorgers or icefall yhetees
Please do a 40K Skaven force please. Maybe fo Kill Team , Necromunda Gamg, GSC or IG substitute.
